I write a blog about managing risk for a CEO, and my daughter is a corporate attorney. Large corporations can't innovate too quickly, because they get kicked in the tail for it if they do. It's not that they WANT to be what's described above. But there is so much regulatory bs. Right. I write a blog about managing risk for a CEO, and my daughter is a corporate attorney.

Was just talking to some folks from some very big companies about their conservative cultures and what they are doing to try to embrace failure... very hard fight for many of us, hope this helps a bit. Funny thing I realized today is that most companies are focused on managing risks, with IT and Legal making a lot of the decisions - few are optimized around exploring opportunities and serving the needs of the market. More ammo for the big guns – thanks David.
